you guys are fucking high. i'm not even mad someone made black metal about harry potter - i'm actually angrier they didn't go deeper. these songs are so surface level lore that this could have been written in 5 minutes, it's like a tolkien record where every song title is just "galdalf" or "frodo" - fucking lazy. not to mention how derivative the music is. i couldn't make it through the record.
they actually had a song on their last album called 'hogwarts castle' jfc. like you could watch the movies half asleep and not read any of the books and know in minute detail what every single one of these songs is about - and you sure as hell can't make out any of these lyrics. wouldn't surprise me if there aren't any. that's how much effort has been put into each of these songs' narratives. pretty sure you could just swap the titles around without there being much impact on anything.

Well, that considerably ruined my expectations

like legit i'm all for creative black metal narratives but god damn, put some effort into it. there's none in this. there's actually a surprising amount of stuff in the books you can derive interesting song topics from and i'm not even a massive fan (especially since the author turned out to be an awful person) but the fact that the band opted for the most obvious, ubiquitous plot points makes me feel like they didn't read the books they're basing their records on. i can't help but feel the positive ratings here are *based* on the novelty rather than *in spite* of it because otherwise i'm struggling to justify it.

my other half: "...slytherin?"

i mean i've seen great metal from lyrical themes i'd never touch, i think all the best bands i can think of with lyrical themes from fictional works offer some level of subversion from their influences and put their own spin on it.
literally half of the songs on this album (excluding the prologue) literally name the main characters in the title, the rest are main plot points or locations - it's just so lazy and uncreative.
